Dorion says Duclair decided to represent himself. Says they offered him a "substantial raise." Nothing was agreed upon.

Duclair will be on the UFA market Friday

bad move from duclair. ottawa is one of the few teams with room to be OK with him being paid to be in the top 6. most other teams will want him to be depth.

5 teams in 6 years, im pretty sure nobody will offer him a juicy contract as he think that he might get

Sounds like the #NHLBruins have held firm on their 6 x $6.5 million offer to pending UFA D Torey Krug. He's expected to hit the market tomorrow, but the Bruins have left the door open for them to reconnect once Krug sees what's out there.

Pretty good number for krug tbh

How do you offer him a raise but fail to give him qualifying offer to keep control of him?

Wa there a risk of a bad case scenario arbitration?

Perfect, don't pay him any more than that or let him walk

Yes. He could have demanded a lot in arbitration apparently?

More than he’s worth

Same reason the Canucks let Stecher walk.

Similar to our AA situation then.
